She come by it natural Dolly Parton and the women who lived her songs

Smarsh, Sarah2021
Books
In this affectionate, sharply insightful book, Sarah Smarsh charts Dolly's meteoric rise against the backdrop of her working-class roots. Drawing on her own experience growing up in rural Kansas, Smarsh crafts a resonant portrait of Parton's cultural importance, above all for the women who populate her songs: struggling mothers, pregnant teenagers, diner wiatresses with deadbeat boyfriends.
